    "content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, I take this opportunity on behalf of the people of Kajiado South Constituency and my own behalf to pass my condolences to the family of the late Mutula Kilonzo, the people of Makueni and Kenyans at large. I had the privilege of being with the late Mutula Kilonzo two times. At one time, he was the Shadow Minister for Justice. He is a man I really admired while I sat on this side of the House. I always wished that one day he would become the Minister in charge of justice. Indeed, that came to pass in the last Parliament. He was true to his words and sprit of ushering in a new Constitution. The late Mutula Kilonzo is a guy I admired especially at the time when we got a new Constitution which creates a bicameral Parliament. I was focused that I was going for the seat of the National Assembly and I wished that he would vie for the same so that we would be in the same House. I know this House would have made great use of his legal expertise in ushering in the remaining pieces of legislation. I also had an opportunity to serve in the Cabinet together with the late Mutula Kilonzo. He was a bright person and this was very evident when we had the Serena Eight that negotiated for the Grand Coalition Government. He made Kenya proud. This country has lost a very great mind. May God rest his soul in eternal peace."
